St Loci. June 13. The Madison
dyke between here and Alton on the
, Illinois side of the river broke about 8
o'clock this mornlog in two places, one
break near Mitchell about 12 miles from
east St Louis, the other further north,
near the head of the dyke, not far from
Alton. The crevasses are 'not very
wide yet but are growing rapidly and
the water is rushing through them at a
fearful rate. It I expected that the
entire bottom north ' of east St Lonis.
.embracing fifty to sixty square miles
will be flooded. The farmers axe lear
lox their homes as rapidly as possible,
many of them going to Alton and oth
ers to different points ef the bluffs five

attraction of the crops and damage to
farm property will be very great. -

Four little children barely escaped
from being precipitated over a bridge

the bridge which spans Sagar creek
on this road, and one of the horses com
pletely turned around with a two seat

without breaking. The whole party
was eared by the centre pole givina
away thereby allowing the front wheels
to pass under. In coming back I no
ticed that tbe bridge which spans Phl

whoever pasees over It, does so at a

DORIEY WRITES A LETTER.
MaeTeagh aad Jesses aad the Ceases
1 ike Star-fteate Preeecatlea.
Ex -Senator Stephen W. Dorsey, who
was lately acquitted in the star-route
trial, has written a lively letter to Mr
Howard O Dickson, of Nsw York, giv
ing a detailed and spicy narrative of the
motives) for the prosecution, according
to his view of the case. lie says the
original object was wholly political and
to destroy him. lis had opposed the
appointment of MaoVeaghand James
the one as Attorney-General and the
other as Postmaster-General, and as
such holding seats in the Garfield, cabi
net, and the charges against him grew
out of their enmity. lie denounced the
sppolntments, hs ssys. in unmistak
able language.- for the reason that "the
man from Pennsylvania" (MscVeagb)
wss chosen because) he was a
son-in-law. and the man from New
York (James) was a sycophant,
neither one of whom could be elected
magistrates in the smallest bailiwick
of his State.- He stigmatized them as
-political fungi." He recalls the ; fact
that he took charge of the Garfield pres
idential campaign, reluctantly as he
asserts, and devoted himself "to the
Brofitiess, and as it turned out, more
ian thankless task of discharging this
trust for ths republican party through
the most deperate canvass of its histo
ry." When the campaign was over be
ears, he "declined the greatest reward
that could be offered to any citizen by
any Executive.- He did not obtrude his
advice In respect to the make-up of the
Garfield cabinet, and when it was ask
mA And riven it was not followed Tbe
L consequence was. he says. Chat Mae-
Veaan same into power ohidk mo. o
for James" hs says, I did not consider
him in the premises, except as ths weak
and serville tool of MaeYeagh. quick In
nothing except tbe capacity to absorb
the malice of his master, and skilled in
nothing except tha subterfuges of a
charlatan or the hypocrisy of a syco
phant." Turning next to ths star-route seen
sations hs declares hs wss actually
-amazed" when he was charged with,
hsrlng conspired to defraud the gov
ernment, lie appears to have been in
this matter, by his own showing, the
victim of his own generosity.
On these generous and unselfish acts
the public is given bv Mr. Dorsey to
understand thst MscVeagb and James
began, aa he describee it, -the prosecu
tion which has just come to an igno
minious end. The most miserable crea
tures that could be caught in the drag
net, snaked scross ths mouth of the
Tllest sewer, were seized upon to rake
and scrspe the country to secure, if pos
sible, something that might be turned
Into a charge against me. It did not mat
ter what the charge was any charge
all charges. Ths dirtiest streams of In
famy of the most distant Territories,
as well as of this District, were raked
np in search of creatures who could be
cajoled by flattery ar who would be
nattered by the promise of office, or who
could be bribed by the mints of coin
or promises of a great government, to
testify to anything they might be train
ed to swear to. The body lice of ho
rn anlty are abundant, but not so abun
dant as the swarms of their coojeners,
who were swift to feed on the feast
provided by UacVeagb and James from
the overflow of the treasury. There
was not a hamlet in this country where
it wss belie Ted I bad a personal friend
but wss visited. There was not a per
son with whom 1 was supposed to have
had correspondence bat what was ap
proached by one or more of these crea
tures. No power was left onused and
no artifice untried to obtain from such
persons any confidential correspondence
of mlns. "
As to ths charge of fraud, Mr. Dorsey
asserts that Garfield knew it was a lie,
Arthur knew it was a lie, MaeYeagh
knew it was a lie, Brewster knew it
was a lie. Bliss knew it was a He all of
themrom tbe stalled ox feeding at ths
rich trough of accident to the meanest
worm which fed from the refuse swept
from behind blm. knew it was a lie."
In the concluding paragraphs of the
letter Mr. Dorsey refers to his acquital.
He says: -To sum op, lc may be re
marked that this is supposed to be a
f reef government of an Anglo-Saxon
people, founded upon the eternal prin
ciples of equal and exact justice to all
men. and yet the history of this trial
shows that at ths very capital of such a
nation, where the government Is a tan
gible fact and a visible agency, it bss
been shown that it Is possible to organ
ize a conspiracy of vengeance under
the mask of a legal prosecution that did
not stop in its inf srnal career until it
had exhausted the arts of bribery upon
everybody connected with its intended
victim, from his sssoriares in business
to tbe cook in the kitchen.' And yet it
ari tailed, notwithstanding, the raking
of every: valley and mining camp and
cannon, every mountain and plain In
all ths vast region In the. West, in ths
attempt to procure something that
would gratify the . dishonorable ambi
tion or crushed politicians. Notwith
standing ths active and willing zeal of
ths worst wretches that could be gatht
ered from every so urea, notwithstand
ing ths invasion of ths sacred privacy
ofhomely family life, to listen through
the half -open doors of whispered con
fidenceIn short notwithstanding every
Tile art thst malignity could devise,
and vicious appliance that renamy
eould suggest, the Jury -developed
twelve citizens who had the intelli
gence te discern the truth, tas manhood
resist ths wiles, and ths eomrags to de
fy the corrupt and desperate power that
exhausted itself to debauch the foun
tains of Justice. In. other .words two
years of time and more than two mil
lion dollars of pnblio money - have been
spent in an effort to wreak upon me the

FINANCXsi AJTAIKS.
Davidson College has an endowment
fund of over g8Sj0pO, and this together
with college dues, annually paid in,
yislds an income of about 814,000. This
sum hss sufficed to run the college and
keep clear of debt, but leaves little
margin for repairs to buildings and im
provements on ths grounds. The col
lege hss been quite' liberal in carrying
out the intention of' the founders, and
has given free access to its class rooms
to all candidates for the ministry, to all
minister's sons, to young men of limited
means, besides others who are there on
scholarships. . Ths policy is to turn
sway no deserving young man, if possi
ble to keep him. Daring the last year
63 students more than one-half paid
no tuition, and the re venoes of the col
lege were thus reduced by' nearly five
thousand dollars.
. This reduction of revenue has limited
the power of . the trustees to repair and
adorn tbe college property f or a num
ber of years, and has at length excited
special efforts to . procure additional
funds for property Improvement, At
this meeting two special committees
were raised, one is entitled a

This committee Is charged with the
doty of devising some plan by which
an annual income can be obtained for
repairing, painting, and otherwise beau
tifying the college buildings and prop
erly caring for the campus. This com
mittee outlined itJ plan, which is to
establish an association for a term of
years, whose members shall give annu
ally five, ten, twenty-fire dollars or
more each ' to this causes About four
hundred dollars was contributed in a
few minutes by members of the board
present. It is expected that the energy
and enterprise of this select committee
aad its earnest chairman, will -peedily
secure a long roll of ) members of the
association." Each member of the com

ed in the J ouekal- Observes, does not

of the want of a dog law in this State
Is brought forward by Mr. Philip Sehiif,
of this city, who recently embarked In
the sheep raising Industry."; He stocked
his farm near the city with a find flock
of sheep and was calculating on making
a fine thing of the venture, but be reck
oned without bis host. The dogs came
in the night time and played havoc with
his wool -and mutton, killing In all
thirty-five sheep. ' The dogs made two
raids on the sheep fold, the last time
attacking the sheep in tbe barn yard
enclosure, whither they f had been
driven for protection. '' ;"1
: Messrs C N and J B Brown, whose
farm adjoins that of Mr Schiff. lost
twelve sheep by the same set of blood
thirsty dogs. T :;-:Vjy: ' -
